Problem with Driverz inc-Speedtech Install

[raguemoe]

I spoke to Jon and he said he will take care of it. He said the wheels are no big deal, he will re-hoop them to the correct offset and he's going to contact Speedtech and find out what he needs (ie brackets) to correct the rear end. His shop is full, but said he will follow up with me friday & try to have room next week.

Good for you, I hope it all works out in the end.

Ugh! I hate reading about threads like this. Especially when my car is being worked on. You brain starts running all the possibilities....

IMO - If in fact this falls on them, he shouldn't "try" to have room for you! They make room and move you to the front of line. Nothing gets touched until this gets done. You have waited long enough.

yup, not alot of shops do it right. It takes time to set-up, mock up and measure correct before cutting and/or installing. Shops have a hard time billing for this time consumiing portion of any custom install. So, what do they do.... Well cut corners because the bid was at "X" amount.

You do have an "Ace" in your cards.... TCI is the referral and consulting party. You should be fine.

A reputable company will just eat it and make things right, Sounds like you will be taken care of.

Every one wants everything to run smooth, In business it dosent always go that way, It's all how you handle it..

Good luck and hope things work out for you..

At this point I'm not in a hurry, I just want it fixed. I think I'm one of those special people were if something can go wrong it will. I'm sure Jon has done many installs & hundreds wheel combos with no problems. If Jon can get it taken care of in a reasonable time, there will be no hard feelings. I understand that sh*t happens and we have to move on. I'm not here to bash anyone, just didn't like the response I was getting and wanted to make sure I wasn't crazy.

Btw the wheels look great & the Speedtech setup is 100% better than what I had on the car.

Stuff like this happens,but they need to make room and get your car on a lift ASAP.

Just as some perspective, Drivers Inc isn't a full blown shop, they barely have room for two cars to be in the shop and if one is in, the other is not getting out. And if the blocking one is in pieces and on the lift, its a bit much to ask for them to put that one in roller status, put it out side in the rain, and eat two days of work while this car is getting taken care of, which it seems it already is at the earliest possible time when space allows.
Please be courteous and try not to be inflammatory.

Yes, that is correct. I have no problem waiting to get the car taken care of. If it takes a month or two (with the wheels) that is ok with me.
